Medical Aid in Dying: What Medical Students Need to Know

End of Life Choices California (EOLCCA) is dedicated to helping Californians understand and exercise their legal end-of-life options. In this presentation, EOLCCA volunteer Grant Affleck will walk attendees through the options available to terminally ill Californians, including California’s End of Life Option Act (EOLOA), also known as medical aid in dying (MAiD), and voluntarily stopping eating and drinking (VSED). The presentation also covers advance care planning and the key documents that support it: the Advance Health Care Directive, Dementia Directive, VSED Directive, and POLST (Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment).

This is a private event for students of Point Loma Nazarene University. To schedule a presentation for your community, email Speaker@endoflifechoicesca.org.
